Did you know that over 168,000 companies — 50,000 in the last 12 months — have ditched their legacy backup software for something fundamentally different?
This is because the demands on today’s enterprises — the need to access data and applications 24/7, no patience for downtime or data loss and exponential data growth at 30-50% per year — are not being met by traditional legacy backup tools. In fact, 82% of CIOs report a gap between the level of availability legacy backup solutions provide and what end users demand.
10 Things to look for when choosing a backup software solution
- RTO (Recovery Time Objectives) < 15 minutes for ALL applications and data
- RPO (Recovery Point Objectives) < 15 minutes for ALL applications and data
- Built for the modern data center
- Simple off-site backup and replication
- Fully integrated cloudbased disaster recovery
- Superior modern storage integration
- 100% automated recovery testing
- Leverage data to lower deployment risk
- Proactive visibility
- Simple setup and deployment
Data loss happens. It doesn’t matter whether the loss occurs through a simple mistake, a hacker attempt, a natural disaster, or other unfortunate event, if you don’t have a reliable backup, it could devastate your business.
- 60% of companies that lose their data will shut down within 6 months of the disaster
- Companies that can’t resume normal operations within 10 days of a loss incident will likely not survive
- Data loss can have major financial implications when considering lost productivity, unrecoverable digital assets and lost consumer confidence which can lead to thousands of dollars in losses.
